Publisher's summary
You can run. You can try to hide. But no matter where you are, the scarecrow will find you.
After a heart-wrenching breakup, the last thing high school sophomore Kyle Shoemaker expected was to fight for his life. But that’s exactly what happens after a drunken trip takes he and his friends to the abandoned farm at the edge of town. Nightly, the scarecrow claims one of them, leaving him with little time. Will he unravel the mystery of the scarecrow before it's too late? Or will its secrets remain buried beneath the dirt and wreckage at the old farm?

Story
These thirteen stories are our own lives, inside out. A boy's summer romance doesn't end in that good kind of heartbreak, but in blood. A girl on a fishing trip makes a friend in the woods, except then that friend follows her back to the city. A father hears a voice through his baby monitor that shouldn't be possible, but now he can't stop listening. From prison guards making unholy alliances to snake-oil men in the Old West doling out justice, these stories carve down into the body of the mind, into our most base fears and certainties, and there's no anesthetic.

Crease is known in Weaver as ‘the bug guy’, the man who takes care of insects and other critters. But what emerges from the shadows of the town’s waste plant is beyond anything found in nature. Fist-sized cockroaches. Bird-sized wasps. Spiders, millipedes, ticks, all swollen to enormous bulk with vicious appetites to match. And other things, creatures that should never exist. Through the night, they come, slithering, buzzing, scuttling, crawling over skin, burrowing into flesh, making the town their nest.

More of a Goosebumps story
Not at all scary! Where were all the parents?? Why didn’t these kids see help from adults??
SPOILER ALERT: if Gary wasn’t a bad person to begin with, why kill the kids? Also if he was after descendants of original killers, why not go after the parents?
This was written seemingly more for young adults - like Goosebumps. There wasn’t much in the way of gore as advertised (actually thankful for this). As an avid horror reader/listener, I ax expecting much more. Totally missed the mark.

Voice is rough
I know it’s AI generated but if you’re going to do this you might as well put in the time and edit it to be good. They can make an AI generated voice of pretty much anyone that has a normal speaking cadence, doesn’t glitch on words, and that can give inflection. The slang and curse words that are what the voice has a hard time with in this book.
